The lineups for tonight’s NL East clash between the Braves and Phillies have been revealed. For the second game in a row, there’s going to be a different feel since a familiar face will still be out of the lineup. Dansby Swanson has been dealing with heel issues this week and those issues are enough to keep him out of the lineup for tonight’s game.

Again, this appears to be the Braves playing things super-safe with him since they were quick to note during the Kansas City mini-series that if this was the postseason then Swanson would be in the lineup. (UPDATE: Apparently it might actually be bad. Welp.) Instead, it’s another night of Ozzie Albies hitting second and Johan Camargo showing off his versatility by making the start at shortstop.
Meanwhile, here’s how the Phillies will look tonight:

It’s a bit of a shakeup when compared to how they were lined up for their game on Wednesday. Apparently they wanted Bryce Harper to rest up for this series, since he didn’t make the start on Wednesday but he’s in the lineup for tonight. Jean Segura is also returning to the lineup after being out of the lineup on Wednesday night as well.
